We have some very exciting news. Starting August 1st we will have a pain management Doctor twice a month in our stephenville location. We'd like to introduce Dr. Mike Martinez with Way Out West Spine and Mobility. For more information or to schedule an appointment give them a call at 682-285-1044

Dr. Mike Martinez is a double board-certified Interventional Spine Pain Specialist and Anesthesiologist (American Board of Anesthesiology and National Board of Physicians and Surgeons).
He grew up in a small refinery town called Texas City, Texas, where he learned hard work firsthand from his father, who worked for a local pressure vessel fabrication shop, and his mother, a dedicated homemaker. In addition to hard work, they stressed the value of a strong education and made sacrifices to enable Dr. Martinez to have the best education possible.
Dr. Martinez incorporates these values on behalf of each of his patients to address the root causes of their pain through cutting edge technology with a personal touch. Dr. Martinez has extensive experience with pain management, anesthesia, steroid and sacroiliac joint injections, infusions and non-invasive spine surgery.
